paving

Hey all. I have an area approx 1.6m x 12m that I want to pave. One side of the area is the house and the other side is a small retaining wall. This distance is 1.6m wide. In the middle between the house and the retaining wall is a series of drains positioned about 2m apart along the 12m distance.

i know that I need to angle the paving 1-2 degs away from the house to allow water to run away from the house. 
my question is should I also angle  the paving away from the retaining wall at 1-2 degs to allow the water to run back into the middle towards the drains to form a shallow V between the house and the wall or just angled away from the house?

any advice would be appreciated.
